He's pretty bad, but it's not all his fault - it's due to this 'new-school' horseshit where they've been teaching 'educated flopping' or something. It's like trying to turn Hasek's play into a system. That puts them out of position when they 'guess' wrong - silly.

GUESS WHAT CHODES - it's hard to make a system out of a guy's natural sixth sense, esp when the guy was one of the top 10 goalies ever.

Anyway - looks like the Giguere magic is wearing off, hopefully the canucks can pull it out in minne and move on, they'll tie the ducks to the bed. I'll pay money to see ol' matty ohlund plant paul "wait this isn't u of maine . . . guys . . . guys" kariya

there's no other way but the hard way with the Canucks, and even after last night's decimation people were still driving around honking...

hahahah, the concussion-kid is always one step away permanent cobwebs in the attic. No matter what checkmanek was thinking, there's no way he should have been out of his crease for the first ottawa goal. Havlat was on his knees for christ sake, and had both philly D coming down on him....anyways, geuss who's got row E seats for game 7. More expensive then the last ones, but an excellent view!

siobhan, what's going on with your team? We need a challenge to win the cup, won't be the same vs junky minne.

Now I wanna see a Minne vs. NJ final! :)

Ottawa it's all up to you - do your nation proud...

CC1GC 05-09-2003 02:17 PM

yeah yeah, we'll see...ottawa always beats jersey, but you never know with brodeur - he's the wildcard. The west is a joke, look for an east sweep in the finals.

I hope so - I can't believe the Western Conference final is Anaheim and Minnesota :eek:

Oh well, I'm doing better today than last night - annoying this is I just got my car flag a week ago and now have to retire already AND I was suppossed to be going to tomorrow's game against anaheim - maybe next year.

It's too bad it wasn't Vancouver vs. Anaheim.....then it woulda been The Nucks vs. The Ducks! ;)

Anaheim and Minnesota didn't just blunder their way past the top teams in the league...I wouldn't be so quick to rule them out (at least not for a sweep).

neither has played the top team in the like yet. I'm more concerned with Giguere than minne, there's no way a trap team with weak defence can beat a much superior team at it's own style. On the other hand, how many times have we seen a team rely almost entirely on a hot goalie to get swept in the finals - most recently, think kolzig vs detroit.

Yeah - we were all getting used to the Nucks-Ducks round ;)... It was hilarious - some people had their car flags at half mast today.

Can't wait for October

School was horrible today - everyone was in such a foul mood and we tried to get out of giving our sales presentations today - but no such luck - our sales teacher is a Habs fan - so she had no sympathy for us :p
